We are close to the release of Chapter 2 now and I just wanted to give you a last update. Everything is working like expected. Chapter 2 is now translated into what I call the four core languages (the languages which will be published in the Wormworld Saga App - English, German, Spanish and French) and there's only some proofreading to be done on the French version. I received the proofread texts for the artbook content which I will polish during the next few days. Byers of the Collector's Edition of Chapter 2 inside the app can look forward to a lot of new author commentary and two new artbook items. I will announce these in more detail in my release blog post.

Alright, now that I'm confident that the release schedule will be met, I have implemented a little counter on the website (which will only work if you have enabled Java Scripts in your browser). I'm going to update the website on 24th December at 11:59pm of my local time. The counter should help fans all around the world to find out when exactly this is in their timezone.

Love your artwork. I'm also fascinated by the format in which you present your story. But I can't help but wonder how your stories would reach a broader audience if you were to refactor your layout slightly in order for it to be publishable as a comic book. I personally would love to have a copy of your art in my book shelf right next to Neil Gaiman's Sandman series.

You won't have to wonder about that forever. There will be a book adaption published by the German Tokyopop publishing house next year. I hope that we are able to make a lot of third party contracts for other languages, too!

@ Mert:

The translator of the Turkish version has already offered to continue the translation work. Looks good for the Turkish version so far!
